Proverbs 20:25

It is a snare for one to say rashly, “It is holy,”
and begin to reflect only after making a vow.

It is a trap to dedicate something rashly
and only later to consider one’s vows.

It is a snare to the man who devoureth that which is holy,
and after vows to make enquiry.

It is a snare to say rashly, “It is holy,”
and to reflect only after making vows.

It is a snare for a man to devote rashly something as holy,
And afterward to reconsider his vows.

Don’t trap yourself by making a rash promise to God
and only later counting the cost.

It is a snare to a man to make a rash dedication,
then later to consider his vows.

It is rash to pledge a sacred gift,
or to make a vow and then have second thoughts.

and lead me in the way everlasting.

Help me spread the Word of God:
